>I'm sorry but this whole tripe of, "We don't even know how they work" is the stupidest part of the current AI hype trend. Well it's true. >They pretend like we are clueless about what's going on inside our own algorithms and it's just silly at this point. Nobody is pretending about anything. They're not "our own algorithms". The entire point of neural networks is that we don't know much or really anything about how to teach intelligence to a machine and so we figured out a way to get the machine to teach itself given data, structure and an objective. Nobody knows what algorithms, processes or constructs neural networks employ to perform their objective once trained. >It would be like saying Jackson Pollock didn't understand how his paintings are even being made because he doesn't understand every step of the physics of the paint No it would be like saying we understood how human intelligence worked because we know how neurons communicate.
